Jasmin used to believe in alchemy and her grandfather's stories about it. But as she grows older, she too grows up and considers his tales a myth for kids. That is, until she turns seventeen--with her life put in danger--and she is forced to start believing in the existence of magic again. *** When Jasmin's life is in danger, her father decidedly enrolls her in Altheria Academy to protect her. It turns out that Altheria Academy is not just an ordinary school--it is a training ground for students like Jasmin, who has special abilities. Little by little, Jasmin realizes that everyone in Altheria Academy is protecting her from their enemy, the Raven Clan, who wants her power. But what if she discovers that her power is far more extraordinary than she initially thought? What if her ability can either save the magical world--or destroy it?
